Purpose
To evaluate patient reported outcomes, visual acuity and refractive errors in subjects under refractive lens exchange surgery and implanted bilaterally with
AcrySof IQ Vivity or/and AcrySof IQ Vivity Toric IOL.
Setting
Sub-group analysis of a multicenter, ambispective registry study conducted in Europe, Australia and New Zealand evaluating the performance of refractive lens exchange subjects bilaterally implanted with AcrySof IQ Vivity and/or AcrySof IQ Vivity Toric IOL in a real world setting through routine clinical practice.
Methods
Patient reported outcomes were evaluated through validated questionnaires, such as Catquest SF-9 for patient’s satisfaction and IOLSAT for spectacle independence at different distances and light illumination. Visual disturbances were also evaluated through a non-prompted interview. Binocular uncorrected and distance corrected visual acuities at distance, intermediate (66 cm) and near (40 cm) were also measured (UCDVA/BCDVA, UCIVA/DCIVA and UCNVA/DCNVA) at study entry visit (3 to 6 months post-implantation).
Results
A total of 84 subjects (9.2% of the overall study population) had both eyes with refractive lens exchange surgery. At study entry visit (3-6 months postoperatively) 74.7% and 80% of RLE subjects reported no difficulty seeing the prices of goods when shopping and seeing to engage in a hobby that you are interested in, respectively. Overall satisfaction was high, 84.3% reported to be satisfied with their sight. In terms of spectacle independence 58.3% reported never using spectacles up close, 77.8% at arm’s length and 86.9% far away. No halos, glare and starbursts were reported by 88.1%, 83.3% and 91.7%, respectively. Binocular mean logMAR (SD) UCDVA, UCIVA and UCNVA were -0.003 (0.087), 0.054 (0.140) and 0.216 (0.150), respectively.
Conclusions
This sub-group analysis of refractive lens exchange patients implanted bilaterally with AcrySof IQ Vivity shows excellent patient satisfaction with no difficulty to perform daily activities, high spectacle independence and very low visual disturbances. These outcomes showed AcrySof IQ Vivity is a good option for refractive lens exchange candidates that want to have presbyopia correction with low visual disturbance risk.
